Herefordshire Council’s bid to become UK City of Culture 2029
Meadow Arts are proud to be supporting Herefordshire Council’s bid to become UK City of Culture 2029.
Herefordshire Council has launched a bold, county-wide partnership that brings together arts, culture and heritage organisations, creative businesses, community groups and public sector partners. Under the theme A Living Borderland, the bid celebrates our landscapes, communities and shared identity, showing how culture can thrive across a rural county.
If successful, the bid would bring high-quality arts and cultural activity to villages, towns and rural spaces, strengthen the £230m+ creative economy and support wellbeing across the county. It sets out an ambitious vision for artistic innovation, increased pride of place, new opportunities for visitors and employment, and a vibrant, connected cultural future for Herefordshire.
